   1  If you read this file _as_is_, just ignore the funny characters you
   2  see.  It is written in the POD format (see pod/perlpod.pod) which is
   3  specifically designed to be readable as is.

   7  README.linux - Perl version 5 on Linux systems
   8  
   9  =head1 DESCRIPTION
  10  
  11  This document describes various features of Linux that will affect how Perl
  12  version 5 (hereafter just Perl) is compiled and/or runs.
  13  
  14  =head2 Experimental Support for Sun Studio Compilers for Linux OS
  15  
  16  Sun Microsystems has released a port of their Sun Studio compiliers for
  17  Linux.  As of November 2005, only an alpha version has been released.  
  18  Until a release of these compilers is made, support for compiling Perl with
  19  these compiler experimental.
  20  
  21  Also, some special instructions for building Perl with Sun Studio on Linux.
  22  Following the normal C<Configure>, you have to run make as follows:
  23  
  24      LDLOADLIBS=-lc make
  25  
  26  C<LDLOADLIBS> is an environment variable used by the linker to link modules
  27  C</ext> modules to glibc.  Currently, that environment variable is not getting
  28  populated by a combination of C<Config> entries and C<ExtUtil::MakeMaker>.
  29  While there may be a bug somewhere in Perl's configuration or
  30  C<ExtUtil::MakeMaker> causing the problem, the most likely cause is an
  31  incomplete understanding of Sun Studio by this author.  Further investigation
  32  is needed to get this working better.
